I personally have mixed feeling about this one but i leave it to you guys to tell me what you think about the use of POS(Point Of Sale) in churches .According to a letter written to one of Nigeria's top blogger, Stella Dimorkorkus, a POS machine have been newly dedicated in a church (name withheld) to aid offering and tithe collection. They say the banks offered it to the church and since the world is going global, we should try and also fit in.
They say its to ease the stress of looking for change every sunday and for those who forget to even bring money to church. So all you have to do when you get to church is use your ATM card at the designated points, and collect your receipts! Its these receipts that you present at the alter as offering. Dear readers, what's your take on this because I can still see the looks of bewilderment on the congregations faces when the announcement was made!
Churches should not concentrate on milking their congregation,giving should be free,no one forces anyone to use these machines,if you dont want to pay your tithe,keep it,the matter is between you and God.
Now the problem is what happens to people who do not have ATM cards and have only N5 to give GOD as offering?
